Racing

Whatever the level of sailing ability many of our members take part in some racing, either seriously or just for enjoyment. Club races take place on Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons during March to October and on Sunday mornings from October to December. Rescue boat facilities are available and many members enjoy a lighthearted social sail whilst races are taking place

Handicap races on Thursday evening and Sunday allow any boats to compete and are often sailed by novice and improving helms.

Fleet racing takes place on Sunday afternoon for the Laser, National Twelve and Merlin Rocket fleets and many of the clubs experienced helms take part. Opportunities are always there for crewing. Experienced helms and many members initially learn racing tactics as a crew.
